'Former Varsity Mat Star Gains
Two Out of Three Falls
in Los Angeles Bout.
'FELD OLYMPIC TITLE
Another Michigan athelete has
made good in the "big time." EdI
Oeorge, erstwhile defender of the
Wolverine heavyweight wrestling
honors, has established his claim
to the World's heavyweight mat
championship by winning two out
of three falls over Gus Sonnenberg
in a match held at Los Angeles,
Wednesday.
The former intercollegiate and
Conference title-holder lost the
first fall to the champion in 14
minutes and seven seconds, but
Sonnenberg could not withstand
his aggressive tactics and was
pinned in 20 minutes and 30e sec-
onds to even the match when
George nailed him with a double
wristlock and a scissors. The third
and deciding fall came 12 minutes
and 52 seconds later when the
former Wolverine pinned his op-
ponent with a Japanese armlock.
This defeat ended the reign of
Gloomy Gus which has continued
for 23 months during which time
the champion had gone undefeated.
Ed George was one of the great-
est matmen ever to wear the Maize
and Blue. His great size and
strength were coupled with an
amazing speed and his knowledge
of the more intricate holds of the
game carried him through the
ranks of collegiate wrestlers unde-
feated. In ;the last Olympic games
George added to his glory by taking
the heavyweight title for the United
States team. He last won the West-
ern Conference championship in
1928, during which year he was
undefeated.
Stribling and Griffith
to do Battle Tonight
Two of the country's most out-
standing heavyweights will be seen
in action tonight at the Chicago1
Stadium when Young Stribling and
Tuffy Griffith meet to exchange'
punches in a ten-round battle. Al-
though the fight is expected to give
the fans more for their money than1
most recent battles Stribling is theI
general favorite.1

Coaches Fisher and Blott Drill
Freshmen in Fundamentals.
Despite the fact that a consider-
able number of days' workouts lie
behindthem the freshmen basket-
ball squad still showed a definite
lack of well-grounded fundamen-
tal play in yesterday's drill on the
field house floor under the super-
vision of Coaches Ray Fisher and
Jack Blott. It was evident that the
two coaches' main problem rests in
the improving of the yearlings'
fundamental work before they can
be given any great amount of
training in the finer points of court
play.

at Half, 16-4.
By sinking long shots the Varsity
basketball team defeated a group
of Michigan Grads led by Bill Or-
wig and Lovell last night in the
Yost field house by a score of 32 to
14.
In the first half the Varsity gain-
ed a lead of 16 to 4 over the Grads
when Daniels sank 3 "long toms"
and Weiss added 2 more from the
floor. Williamson brought the to-
tal to 12 points with a field basket.
Due to the clever guarding of Or-
wig and Lovell the regulars were
held at bay until Daniels started
the procession of counters by ar-
ching a long shot. Hudson was in-
serted into the lineup and made 2
baskets as the half ended.
